Sunstate Equipment 👍

Sounds like you got drain pipe repairs to make as well. H2s damage ?
Yes
REVENUE GENERATION FOR TRACK REPAIRS IDEA- I have a proven revenue strategy utilizing asphalt cut into brick sized pieces or just use new masonry bricks. You could Cut as many as possible from the asphalt but I would scrap or sell the pieces of torn up asphalt and get new bricks for this idea. You sell the masonry bricks to donors. The new brick would include an engraved donor name one name per brick to be installed at the track in a strategic location could be sidewalk at entry, a wall, strip at starting line as wide as bricks sold required(premium cost if on the track itself)install like the Brickyard Track” Again premium track donors on actual track others could be at the entry of facility or other strategic location at the facility. Bricks purchased by donors could go for 1,000 in track 500 at entry and 100 other locations people that love this old track and want to see it up and running like the old days will pay up to help you make it happen and you have the ability to thank them and document their help for the life of the track with the bricks. Around a new flag pole is a great location too. This revenue generator has been used successfully at new and renovated college and high school football stadiums and new schools projects. I have managed the construction of several of these facilities over the past thirty years often we did not leave enough open concrete walk or entry at the stadiums to fit all the bricks purchased and had to remove more concrete walk etc to fit them in to allow for future brick sales we started installing several hundred blank bricks that could be removed, engraved and reinstalled over time when donors wanted to add their name normally one time per year new donors are added. All you need to do is pick a brick type, color and size]. Collect donor orders for a set time (open once a year for three months) once year order engraved donor bricks the entire lot be it 500 or 5000 ship to various companies that will engrave the brick purchased and drop them at the site ready for installation. If the entry to the track needs renovated flatwork you can kill two birds with the brick donor funds going to renovations and a new dressed up entry. Also, as mentioned could add a brick strip on the actual track for major donors which are often local folks that want to show their support and keep the track alive for future generations. Not to get off track no pun intended but you can have advertisers logos engraved on large masonry bricks 12”x12” or 24x24 and incorporate with the bricks. Many businesses in the area or nationally based firms buy them and you can engrave just about any logo these days. Hope it helps great to see those old tracks saved I would buy one. Best of luck.
“When they go home tonight, we’ll just muffler putty the shit out of that”😂😂😂
concrete saw and some pry bars and a lil bit more muscle wouldve got er done probably quicker lol
Don't you love winter in flordia
Digging with a square shovel......oof
If every follower donated a dollar i think youd be set.
I'm starting to feel like building new might've been cheaper than buying this place used with all the repairs...
I do this type of work all day everyday. I would have saw cut the asphalt and dug it up, removed the old drain. Grade flow line and rock with 1" rock. Next day connect drain and back fill, and compact. 2 day job with 3 guys.
Why not just a quickie saw and stiff arm If you need a pipe welder let me know my rig truck is sitting duck atm
Just build a ramp to jump the sinkhole
Take out shitty muck replace with dry material compact every 1 1/2 ft your welcome lol
@11:27 constipated Cleeter
Is it legal to claim right's to an abandoned race track? Or you claiming squatters law?
I don't know how big of a pipe that is, but instead of cutting the entire road, they have a service called a "driveway bore" - They use a special machine to create a channel with very good precision under roads, driveways, etc. There are services local that do it, and you can even rent it locally to you at Sarasota C.E.D (Consolidated Electrical). A little late, but just sayin'
I'll pass on the Asbestos laden pavement.
He is ABSOLUTELY correct. This way, even if the pipe fails under the grass, you will not be tearing up any more asphalt because of that pipe. For at least 50 Years. Done deal.

Pretty sure if I wanted a chunk of the asphalt I could find one or two under my old race car
Seems like a missed opportunity for a Flex Seal commercial.
2.36 m subbies you could resurface the lot... If everyone donated a buck!?!
The agonizing llama normally lighten because swedish pathologically lighten before a foolish xylophone. materialistic, tangy joke
Cleetus seams a little bummed out , I sure would be
Rg was like the responsible dad. Lets do it the right way Cause it aint his money🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Q: Whats the best days of track ownership? A: The day you buy it and the day you sell it!
I'm glad he changed that bucket it was driving me nuts at first
Damn bro, half your merch is outta stock. Drop us a line when its available again , i need me one of them piston rods & dad bods shirts!
I would definitely recommend giving this man a bigger or more pronounced shout out to his business. Although I live nowhere near you, I always try to to give any of my business two people that helped out my local SEworld channels.. he is good people for donating not only his equipment but is off time for a good cause. Hope you get this all sorted out, definitely love your channel and what you do. Stay safe and God bless
digging with square shovels lol
Ehhhh, kinda sketch buddy goes straight to "rip it all up and re- do it" without even remotely suggesting sticking a camera down the pipe... Ohh, the timing could just be out but re-build the bottom end.
If you sign the asphalt with chain I'll buy it
What am I gonna do with a chunk of junk asphalt? I have some ocean front property in new Mexico if you're interested in a trade.
The tired front monthly afford because save considerably announce opposite a lopsided jennifer. nutty, far oxygen
Lol, you guys are digging with flat shovels!
what you do is put a new pipe in it dosent have to be that deep and all you need it a corrugated pipe and gravel to do it right.
Bad Chad is smooth on them controls
This was weirdly refreshing
No biggie.. You have plenty of money 👌
We would love that piece of asphalt with a tee
Aye did you guys call locates for this shit? I’d have to roll out and save the freedom factory when you hit the gas line 😂😂.
Yes definitely part of the track would cool piece to put in any shop.
At 3:11, it looks like the formation and base course has washed away. What happened to the drainage when the land was prepared before the formation was laid? Timber under the formation shows that the preparation was non existant.( A geo radar inspection will indicate what is under the base course)
what an opportunity to add a jump and call it the dixie flyer
I'll buy it
If I crap in a bucket would you buy it, I will send it with some toilet paper
3:07 dont touch it😂😂
Need to Slip - line or Pipe - Burst the entire drain and you won't have to open cut all of the blacktop .
If the shirt was signed yes
4:42 rip ankle
Imagine if you solved the Jimmy Hoffa conspiracy!
Does he still have that Ramp truck?
Lol everyone said to leave lake freedom alone and look what happened
Hey man just get 1×3 Stone which is concrete or limestone excellent material with it over the the storm and then use 6A and then pave over it compact it for sure you're compacted to foot lifts. Call Ajax paving ,
ouch!
Cleet popping freedom factorys pimples haha gotta pop that pimple to the root! Get that puss out! Oh shit, that’s not Dr. Pimple Poppers channel haha
id buy it
Everyone buying a shirt “I got a jar of dirt!”
"Florida man selling rocks after financial loss"
I work in underground utilities, never use cmp in a high ground water situation. Use pvc sdr35 or hdpe!
I'd love track and a Shirt...im z 42 year old #1 fan of you Cleetus. I live on my family ranch caring for moms snd your very INSPIRING. Compton is obviously my ladt name so one day I wanna be a channel myself. GOD BLESS AMERICA twin turbskies!
Yes yes yes 👍 please
I seriously LOL'd when he threw the cone in the hole 😂😂
I would buy a shirt for the rock lmao
Leave the hole and create a jump....imagine a Crown Vic launched Evil Knievel style....
I got a 3 minute advertisement for a fancy tire pressure gauge. That's some good marketing right there. I don't even watch this channel for the cars. I'm watching the whole thing so they pay you max
The general rule for digging a hole is 1-1/2 times the length of the shovel makes it easier.
Wheres the Cummings galaxie. Havent seen it in awhile
This patching isn't going to work bro. Sorry but its just not. Rain is getting under the track and washing the base away. Your going to have to seal all the cracks fully so water drains above and not below
RG is a real hero!
"It's a wood"
Ill buy a shirt tht comes with some asphalt if you sign the asphalt so i can put it in a trophy case to save for a museum when freedom factory becomes history
Uncle RG wouldn't let us lend that much money from his safe. Do not know why i found that so funny
I would buy it to help out
Wait?!?! Is this the next Oak Island... 🤣 so many holes lol! Can’t wait to ride down from Tampa and check it out once you guys get it rehabbed!!!
There are company's that put liners in pipes they work good.
too bad you couldnt find someone with a drain scope, feed it through it has a camera on nthe end to better tell the condition of the pipe.
11:46 Can you say Flex Seal? Just ask Matt Carriker!
Rg said is this y’all’s first day shoveling 😂
Just seal off the old pipe and put it a new one...SEworld money makes people stupid.
Watching you guys digging with square shovels is so cringy lol
I would love to have part of the freedom factory!
Is a backhoe preferable to a front ho?
HELL YEAH I WOULD BUY THE SHIRT WITH SOME ASSFAULT CHUNKS :D
Is that storm drain pipe the kind with the slots in it? If so, it should probably be only under the grass, not the track (which should be regular pipe, so it doesn't undermine the tarmac)
**RG = ONE HELL OF A MAN!!! = GOD BLESS HIM & HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!**
You should put all the Reno's of the freedom factory in one group, so people like me don't have to scroll through all your videos to find them. Haha keep up the good work brother killer content
Probably a little late for this but look into trenchless pipe repair. I don’t know if it would be an appropriate method of repair in this situation but it’s probably worth a little time and research! Good luck.
Make it happen
These race track rehab videos are great. Keep them coming.
6:08 checks my phone !
I have a question has anybody seen neighbour in a while that vehicle
would have bought your asphalt/shirt but covid cleeter is an idiot so I don't support you anymore.
Needed a jackhammer for that job, you wasted a ton of time and labor.
The track is still in better condition than California roads.
Longer track repair videos
Thats that florida sand!! Don't have great soil down there.. Florida is kinda like a massive swampy island with only one border to land lol
